BH Personal Service Star Awards back for second year

The Boutique Hotelier Personal Service Star Awards will be back in October to once again reward and recognise the real shining stars of the hotel industry and this year will be even bigger and better.

After the huge success of last year, which saw hundreds of hospitality professionals and hotel employees come together, the awards will return to Hilton Olympia on 20th October to celebrate the hard-working professionals who dedicate their lives to providing A-star service within their hotels.

The awards will be held on the first night of the Independent Hotel Show 2015, just a stone’s throw from the exhibition venue itself, and will bring together the real crème de la crème of the industry at the glittering ceremony hosted by the Boutique Hotelier team.

The Personal Service Star Awards are the only ones of their kind that are solely focused on celebrating those staff members who go above and beyond each and every day to give exceptional service to guests.

Rather than handing out gongs to the owners and business managers, Boutique Hotelier wants to recognise those working tirelessly in an industry that often comes without praise and high pay.

This year will see members of staff rewarded in a total of ten categories, including Bar Manager of the Year, Restaurant Manager of the Year and Revenue Manager of the Year, with the final award of the night going to the industry’s Shining Star.

Two sponsors have already confirmed their attendance for a second year, with Mitre Linen sponsoring the Housekeeping Manager of the Year award and Corby of Windsor getting behind the Shining Star accolade.

On July 6th, the nominations will official open, giving hoteliers, staff working in hotels and members of the hospitality industry the chance to speak out about who they think is most deserving.

Once the nominations have been cast, a shortlist will be drawn up in October – a total of four names will be shortlisted for each category – before the final winners will be revealed on the night of the ceremony. The event, which is free for hoteliers to attend, takes the format of a bustling networking evening, complete with canapes and free-flowing Champagne from 7pm.

Keep an eye out for details of the nomination process, which will officially open on July 6th.
